TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1912. 8 RAIL- RATES ENTER iE Transportation Woes Will Be Solved by T. R., Says W. H. Paulhamus. WASHINGTON VICTORY SEEN Candidate for Nomination for Gover nor In Neighboring State Declares Progressives Will Have Land slide In His Section. CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR OF WASHINGTON PROGRESSIVE FIVE YEARS. I have ben a progressive for five years. Advanced thought in legis lation and politics is no( a new thins; with me. I favor the candidacy of Theodore Roosevelt for President of the United States for the reason that I believe he can and will do more than any other man in curbing the powers of the railroads and bring ing about a more equable plan of distributive rates. The transporta tion question as applied to the dis tribution of our products Is one of the most vital issues before the pro ducers not only of Washington, but of the entire Northwest. . As a candidate for the nomination of Governor on the Progressive ticket, my platform will be to aid the present residents in attaining a higher efficiency In their life work, especially those engaged In farming and horticulture, rather than to use our energy and money in seeking newcomers. A man who makes more on a live-acre tract than the slip shod farmer on a 160-acre place is more valuable to the state and to society. I predict that the Progressive party will carry Washington by a big majority. Fully 75 per cent of Re publicans will vote for Roosevelt. The majority of the women voters are in favor of Roosevelt. "Washington will g-o down the line for Roosevelt and the Progressive party' , Such Is the laconic analysis of the political situation in Oregon's sister state by AV. H. Paulhamus. of Sumner, candidate for the nomination for Gov ernor on the Progressive ticket, who was In Portland'yesterday. Extreme modesty is the correct term to apply to Mr. Paulhamus' attitude when mention was first made of Bull Moose, Progressive, women's suffrage and such other things that might sug gest advanced ideas in politics, legis lation or political and social economy. In his first breath, Mr. Paulhamus said that the organization of the Pro gressive movement in Washington was still quite too much in its formative state to speak of it more than super ficially. It was evident that he was going to be guarded and circumspect, and the prospects for a complete in terview looked anything but pleasing. "Well, in regard to Theodore " "Oh, Roosevelt, you mean," broke in Mr. Paulhamus with enthusiasm. "Now you have got me. My modesty forsakes me when you mention that name. My train leaves in 20 minutes, but. say, I can tell you enough In that limited time about what Mr. Roosevelt can and will do for us that would fill a small sized library. Rate Qnefttton Involved. "Do you know what is one of the most important issues before the peo ple of the Northwest today? It Is the question of fair distributive rates. I am convinced that Koosevelt will do more for us in a transportation way than any other President. He can help us by appointing on the Interstate Commerce Commission men who are in sympathy with the producer and ship per rather than with the corporate in terests. I believe that Roosevelt will do more for the cause of the people and the actual producers and workers of this country than any other man. He stands for Justice for all, and lie is lincere. "I believe that there are fully 75 per cent of the Republican voters in Washington that agree with me in this. They realize that it is time to shake off the clutches of the privileged class and they believe that Roosevelt is the man for the Job. And the women they are almost universally for Roose velt. It looks like a big landslide for the Progressive party in Washington. President Taft will be hopelessly in the minority. "I have been a Progressive since 1907. when I served my first term in the Washington State Senate. As chairman of the railroad committee during the sessions of 1907 and 1909, I undertook to show that the people had some rights in the matter of trans portation. My record in working in be half of advanced legislation is an open book. The spirit and thought of pro ;ressivism is not new with me." Senator I Good Farmer. Although engaged actively in Wash ington politics for a number of yearB, Candidate Paulhamus Is equally well known as Farmer Paulhamus. He owns as fine a farm in the Puyallup Valley as one can find in a day's travel, and all the time looking for the best. Mr. Paulhamus is not only a land propri etor, but tie is a farm hand during the busy season and can do as much work between 4 A. M. and S P. M. as the most seasoned laborer. There is noth ing of the kid-gloved farmer about Mr. Paulhamus. This is the busy season in the Puy allup Valley. In that rich and pro ductive part of Washington there is a district about seven miles square that Is literally a beehive of industry. In tensive farming is the chief vocation of the hundreds of residents of that district. They grew so many black berries and loganberries there this year that they had to can what fresh ber ries they could not ship to market, and perform both operations at the same time. That blackberry crop this year will produce a revenue of about $750, 000 a tidy sum for a plot of ground even miles square. Berry. Crop la Bumper. "We have the largest berry crop in the history of the industry," said Mr. Paulhamus. "At the beginning of the season I estimated that we would have about 1,000.000 cans of blackberries in addition to the fresh berries supplied the markets. The estimate was too low, so I was compelled to come over to Portland to buy 400.000 additional ;ans to take care of the crop. We will ship out -about 100 carloads of the product. Our best variety Is the ever green blackberry. This variety is in digenous to Oregon and even in Its wild state is a delicious berry. By proper cultivation we have been able to improve the fruit wonderfully. The blackberry crop will bring us about J750.000 this year. In addition to MOOS A ibout 1200 barrels of red; raspberries. "In the Puyallup and Sumner Fruit growers' Union we have the largest association of the kind in the world. Our membership is about 1500. We operate on the co-operative plan, with the result that the producer gets as much for his products as it Is possible, under present conditions. "It is our aim to Improve conditions by securing better distributive rates. What applies to our locality Is true of the entire Northwest. This part of the United Stales has been discriminat ed against in the matter of freight rates, and It is time that this condition should be remedied. There is no rea son why we should not have the same freight privileges as the producers on the Atlantic Coast. The Panama Canal will enable us to ship products cheap ry, but it will not benefit us as far as shipments to interior points are con cerned. We must be able to distribute our products in the interior, the Mid dle West, after the canal is in oper ation. Gubernatorial platform Talked. "We must develop our water trans portation facilities so that we can build up our domestic markets. We are at the mercy of transportation companies controlled in the East. The Eastern interests are not in sympathy with our nri. Thia is a condition that handi caps us seriously. Our big fight for the next ten years will oe me aisiriouwvc rate question. I sincerely believe that Theodore Roosevelt and the Progres sive party will solve this question for us.

GOVERNOR RAPS PAULHAMUS Hay Says Candidates Are Trying to Ride Popular T. R. Wave. SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 19. (Spe cial.) Governor M. E. Hay in a state ment issued today takes a. rap at W. H. Paulhamus, J. C. iJawrence and Robert T. Hodge for choosing to go into a convention in an attempt to win a double nomination, instead oT letting their names go before the vot ers at the primaries. Governor Hay says these men are "seeking to ride into office on the pop ularity of Colonel Roosevelt." and he adds that their conduct amounts to an evasion of the direct primary princi ple. The Governor in part said today: "I notice some candidates promin ently mentioned for gubernatorial hon ors have declined to allow their names to go before the voters at the prima ries and are instead seeking to ride into office on the popularity of Colonel Roosevelt. "To me this seems an evasion of the principle of the direct primary law. which the people nave rougni to se cure, giving them, the right to name their own candidates. "I feel there is absolutely no call for a third party in this state, as the Republican party has place-d on the statute books practically all the so called progressive measures the most important of which are the state regu lation of public service corporations doing business in the state: the direct primary law, our Industrial insurance law. protecting the laboring man, the most important piece of legislation in its line ever written on the statute books of any state or nation; bureau of Inspection and supervision of public offices: the local option law; the full crew law: the eight-hour law for un derground miners, and the eight-hour law for women wage-earners, and the anti-racetrack gambling law." BRIDGE CARS TO RUN SOON Railway Connections Being Made at Holladay Avenue. The Portland Railway, Light & Power Company Is pushing construction of its connecting tracks between Holladay avenue and the approach to the new O.-W. R. & N. bridge. At the inter section of Holladay avenue and Adams street double curve connections are be ing made with the tracks on Holladay avenue east and west. The work is somewhat complicated, but will soon be completed. Rails are being laid to the approach. Within two weeks or less streetcars may run over the new bridge from Hol laday avenue. Automobiles and other vehicle travel go by way of East First street to Holladay avenue. The street is rough, but the dry weather has made it reasonably passable. The traffic over the new bridge Is about what went over the Steel bridge, but the new bridge is sure to become popular, as the delays by the opening of the draw are small. The railroad bridge upper draw is opened one time to about seven times for the Burnside bridge draw. REFEREE TO KEEP WAKEFIELD SUIT City Attorney Grant Protests Against Interference at This Stage. CLELAND DECLARED ABLE Case Again&t Portland Involving $408,000 Stays With Individual Arbiter When Maguire Mo tion Jjoeea 10 to 3. When Councilman Maguire attempted yesterday to secure the adoption of a resolution by the City Council request- '4 ing the Mayor to appoint a commit tee to take the proper legal steps to have the case of Robert vvaiceiieia against the city, which involves about (408,000, taken from tne nanus oi xvei eree John B. Cleland on the ground that he Is prejudiced In favor of the com pany. City Attorney Grant raised a vigorous protest, which, when followed by explanations of the situation, re sulted in the Council voting down the Maguire resolution by a vote oi 10 to o. In introducing the resolution Coun cilman Maguire declared that it ap peared to him that the rights of the city were not properly safeguarded in leaving the case to the decision of a referee who was believed to be In favor of the corporation which was seeking a big amount from tne city, ne urgeu the Council to take the proper steps to have the referee proceedings ended and the case left to the decision of a Jury. Grant Make Protest. City Attorney Grant was asked to express an opinion' and he urged the Council not to adopt the resolution. "The case Is at present half through," h said, "and any Interference the Council might attempt would only tend to embarrass the City Attorney s onice and hurt the case of the city. "Mr. Tomllnson, a deputy in my oi tlee. has been given charge of the case and is handling It for the city exclusive of any other business. Mr. Tomllnson, before the beginning of the case, was called to the office of Presiding Judge Kavanaugh and was asked about tne appointment of a referee to take the testimony in the case. The court or dered a reference, which he had a per- feet right to do, inasmucn as tne case Involves a vast amount of testimony. We did not consent to the appointment of a referee, as the court records win show. "Several names were submitted to me and I selected Judge Cleland as being a man who is able and capable, and I am sure will give the city a fair trial. In this resolution you have nothing to gain. The presiding Judge has the right to appoint a referee, and it Is not possible for the city nor the City At torney nor the City Council to force him to try the case in any other way. You expect me to win your cases for you and still you do everything In your power to prevent It. Interference Is Resented. "I cannot stop the trial of this case without the consent of the presiding Judge. I don't like this interference with the efforts of the City Attorney's office to win cases. As a matter of fact, there is less litigation before the city at present than there ever was before, because I have tried to conduct the of fice on a business-like basis. "In this Wakefield case tne rereree will merely make his findings of facts and conclusions at law and report them to the presiding Judge, along with a transcript of tne eviaence in tne case. The Judge can accept or reject these findings. Then if the city is not sat isfied It can appeal to the Supreme Court of the state. "Objection has been made to the city paying a referee $1500. This I consider a reasonable fee, inasmucn as tne case will be a long one. It has been said that I was too liberal In offering so much for a referee. As a matter of fact, the Water Board set this fee. If the case had been tried by a Jury the fee would have been $36 a day, or much more probably than is being paid for a referee. Following this protest and explana tion the Council voted upon the reso lution. Those in favor- of its passage were Councilmen Clyde, Jennings and Maguire. Opposed were Councilmen Burtrard. Daly. Dunning, Joy, Monks Montac. Schmeer, Wallace, Watkins and Wllhelm. Aged Widow to Be Burled Today OREGON CITY, Or., Aug. 19. (Spe cial.)

MANY ACTS ARE VITIATED Clerk's Office Complicated by Rec ords Written tTp Daily Since Mr. Scott's Resignation and Certified' as Correct. For the last nine days the United States District Court has been con ducted without an executive legalized head with the result that the records are so badly befuddled that it may take an act of Congress to straighten out the tangle. This was accidentally discovered yes terday by Chief Deputy W. S. MacSwain, of United States Marshal Scott's office, when he received a telegram from the Department of Justice that the District of Oregon had no Marshal, as the resig nation of Marshal Scott had been ac cepted August 10. Mr. Scott has been away on an automobile trip over the state for 10 days, and his office has been conducted in the usual way by his deputies, serving processes of the court, receiving and paying out money. Sat urday Mr. MacSwain telegraphed the Department of Justice, under tne name of Mr. Scott, that $6000 had been trans ferred from the old year to the new year account, and desired that $1000 of it be credited to immediate needs. This brought the telegram that there was no Marshal or tnis aistrici ana naa noi been since August 10. Department Neglect to Notify.
